For that test the accuracy threshold was 5 MOA at only 50 yards Most of us are aiming for much better than that as our minimum accuracy threshold. The manufacturers in s tier are 1 MOA or better at 100 yards. These are also the people who will likely purchase a new barrel before shite gets over 2 MOA.

There's a group of folks who use my manufacturer for sniping invasive goats in the Galapagos, from helicopters these dudes just slay, and have 2nd rifles to swap to once they heat up too much. LINK to goat slaying on YouTube. They claim all their service rifles are over 40k rounds of abuse so far. Oh yeah, my manufacturer isn't even on the tier list at all.

I know that, I'm speaking to the reliability aspect. According to "the chart" you can't even trust your life to a Bushmaster but it can burn 10,000 rounds of decent factory ammo without a hiccup?

Accuracy is an entirely different game, but also essentially irrelevant for a home defense weapon.

Sorry, I was originally planning to link to their page that linked to the BBC clip on goat slaying... but opted to go straight to YouTube. JP rifle.

I've have a couple of their complete lowers and barreled uppers from the late 90s, never had a problem. After Remington bought them, they're quality went south.
A lower is a lower regardless of the rollmark, I put my money into the barrel, both carrier and lower parts kit.
